Praise for this book
"We can rest easy knowing that the obligations we feel based on the shoulds the world shouts at us can be quieted."
As women, we balance and juggle so many balls, roles, jobs, etc. If you sepdn more than 5 minutes on the internet or social media, you are bombarded with the shouts of who we should be and what we should be doing with our life. If you have ever said to yourself, "I should ____", this book is for you. This book is like sitting down with your best friend for coffee and them reminding you that you are worth more than the shoulda of the world. I loved how down to earth and relatable Crystal made each chapter. I truly felt like she was was talking about my life! There are so many "ah ha" moments and necessary reminders of what/who we are to God! The interwoven scripture, Bible stories and "Flip the Script" makes it possible to step out from under our "shoulds" and see ourselves for the amazing person God created us to be.
